As usual, there is more than one way to achieve the goal here. You can use the standard AE t bar set up and modify the chassis to lower the roll center (Laje, Hyperform) or leave the chassis alone and change where the center of the pivot is on the t bar (OD, Slapmaster)

Sorry, I'm not answering your question A one-off chassis would be quite expensive, like at least double. PM me if you would like more info
OD, you answered my question. I was just pondering the thought.

P2, It is Chris Barrnes. He has gotten better even though he is runnig a bl system. I also helped him out with his front end setup. I just could not get the car to stay planted in the rear at all. I did find out that my t-plate was warped or had a bow in it from front to back.
